India vs Sri Lanka Live Streaming – T20 World Cup 2014

T20 World Cup 2014 Live Streaming: The second match of a double-header at the Shere Bangla National Stadium will see India taking on Sri Lanka as a warm-up match on Monday.

Kumar Sangakkara has announced that he will retire from T20I cricket at the end of the World cup, which will of course motivate him to end on a high. Sri Lanka has shown in the past that they have the ability to step up in big tournaments, and this will be no different. Dinesh Chandimal takes over the captaincy in the shortest format of the game, with Lastih Malinga as his deputy. The latter will play a huge role for his side, as he always does in T20 cricket. The 37 year old Tillakaratne Dilshan will hold the key for his sides batting, and will be hoping to strike early form at the top of the order. The young Kusal Perera will be his opening partner, he has showed plenty of promise, and with conditions more to his liking, many have tipped him to be the top run scorer for Sri Lanka in the tournament.

India will bow doubt be bolstered by the return of the dynamic MS Dhoni. They struggled during the recently completed Asia Cup, and will be desperate for any kind of momentum that they can pick up during the warm-up fixtures. Dhawan and Sharma will be the key for India at the top of the order, but they will have to face up to Malinga, who will be looking for early breakthroughs. This might see a more cautious approach by India, which can place the middle order under huge pressure. The Indian pace attack has been struggling of late, and all the pressure will be on the spin trio of Ashwin, Jadeja and Mishra, who will revel in the local conditions.
